Lion agility

The agility of Lions- Unfortunately most of the time spent with lions its just sitting and waiting for something to happen. Lots of time is spent laying around conserving energy (by the lions) or ambling from one shady spot to another. Suddenly, one lion darts at another, others react and the moment is gone. Photographing lions is tough in that regard, you can't spend hours hunched over a camera, eye glued to the eye piece waiting for that moment. What it needs is anticipation and behavioural knowledge, not only for lions but for any specie that you plan to photograph.
